Description: 800x600 Normal 0 false false false EN-CA X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 This tobacco card (also referred to as a Cigarette Card) was issued by the W. Duke and Son’s Co. of New York as an insert premium in their Honest Long Cut brands of Tobacco and Cigarettes during 1892. It is one from a RARE series of 25 larger cards entitled , “ BREEDS OF HORSES ”. It is designated as series N101 in Burdick;s American Card Catalogue. The front of the card features a striking illustrated portrait of the particular breed being featured on a background with a wood grain design. (The same images were used by Lion Coffee in their K30 Series) The back of the card features advertisement for Dukes Honest Long Cut Tobacco, and interestingly referrers to W.Duke Sons & Co as a Branch of the American Tobacco Company. The back also features a list of all of the cards in the series. The brilliant lithography for the card was done by GEO. S. HARRIS & SONS Lithographers of Philadelphia . This card features The CANADIAN BREED The Card measures 4 2/8 inches by 2 7/16 inches approximately. The card does have some pencil marks and discoloration to the back, and a few smaller spots of wear to the front. It is free from major creases. It displat very well for a card that is over 130 years old.
